Chapter 101 - Mystery, Righteous and Righteous (3)
”I have to make a decision!” Wu Zhengmin said in a deep voice.
This time, Wu Zhengmin was no longer as confident as he was a few days ago. Instead, he was frowning and feeling helpless.
”Now that the Ji Clan is closing in on us, and at the same time they have solid evidence, the Old w.a.n.g Clan will not be able to take it, unless we intervene!” Wu Zhengmin rubbed his brows and said in a deep voice.
”But, if we were to intervene, then Zhiyong's side …” Wu Zhengxiang wanted to say something, but he hesitated.
Wu Zhiyong secretly clenched his fists. He understood the meaning behind Second Uncle's words. If the Wu family wanted to protect w.a.n.g Zhijun's father, then this matter would implicate him. Moreover, all the connections between the Wu family and the military, including some of the forces surrounding the Wu family, would also be severely injured.
The situation was clear. There was no need to say anything more.
”What's there to discuss? Of course, it's to protect our resolve!” Wu Zhengxin said, ”No matter how important Old w.a.n.g's family is, they are still outsiders. Zhiyong is our own family. If we don't protect him, who else can we protect?”
”But, if we lose Old w.a.n.g's family, it will be a huge loss for us!” Wu Zhengxiang said helplessly.
Even though the w.a.n.g family was not that big of a family, in reality, due to the fact that Old Man w.a.n.g had offended too many people, coupled with the fact that Old Man w.a.n.g's health was getting worse and worse, the Wu family quickly declined.
Because of this, the w.a.n.g family was now almost like a va.s.sal of the martial arts family.
Maybe it was because the w.a.n.g family had inherited w.a.n.g family's sarcastic and selfish character, so in the past few years, the w.a.n.g family had attacked others according to the martial family's wishes, and had gained many benefits for the martial family.
It could be said that the w.a.n.g family was the blade of the Wu family in the political world. They were the fighters of the Wu family.
If they could only watch as the Old w.a.n.g Family fell, it would be equivalent to cutting off their own arms. If the Old w.a.n.g Family fell, then for the martial arts family, their strength would be greatly weakened. At that time, it would be strange if the other families didn't take the opportunity to attack!
”This is how the Ji Clan does things!” Wu Zhengmin let out a long sigh, ”We can only blame our carelessness. If the Ji Clan's tactics were that easy to resolve, they wouldn't have the current Ji Clan! They are giving us a choice to push forward our dilemma, but we have no choice! ”
Wu Zhengxin said indignantly, ”So what? Could it be that if we lose Old w.a.n.g's family, our Wu family will fall? Humph! They were only resting for a short period of time. Unless their Ji Clan did not make any mistakes in the future, they would have nothing to show for it … ”Just you wait!”
Wu Zhengmin and Wu Zhengxiang couldn't help but shake their heads. If only things were as simple as they were!
”Boss, no matter what, we have to make the decision now. Right now, the disciplinary committee has isolated Old w.a.n.g and if we're slow, then perhaps we won't be the ones to choose. The Ji Clan will definitely deal with us after taking care of Old w.a.n.g and then, it will be the Ji Clan's all-out attack …” You have to hurry! ”
”That's right!”
Wu Zhengmin rubbed his brows, ”The Ji Clan has given us a dilemma, but we still have to add a time limit to the choice...”
”Father!”
He gritted his teeth and said: ”Second Uncle, Third Uncle, you don't need to be in such a difficult situation. This time, I will protect the w.a.n.g family, and even if this matter finds out about me, I will at most take the initiative to resign and go out of the way. I believe I can come back within five to ten years, and at that time, I will have time to rise again …”
”It's not as light as you say!” Wu Zhengxiang shook his head and said, ”Since the Ji Clan has come this far, do you think you have a chance to make a comeback?”
”That's right. Zhiyong, don't play the part of a child. Right now, among all the children under the Wu family, you are the only one who can cause a ruckus. Whatever you say, we must protect you. We can discuss the rest later!” Wu Zhengxin also said.
Wu Zhiyong no longer spoke, but he secretly felt relieved in his heart.
In fact, did he want to be involved?
The reason why he said he would protect the w.a.n.g family and take responsibility for himself was actually just to make things look better. He wanted Second Uncle to know that Wu Zhizhong was a person who dared to take responsibility. His style was tough and his character was strong. The more he was like this, the more outstanding his performance would be. Then, Second Uncle would definitely not agree to this plan.
But from the looks of it, it was indeed like that.
This way, Wu Zhiqiang could be at ease. As long as he could protect himself first, he would have the opportunity to strengthen the Wu Clan in the future.
”Old Second and Old Third, since both of you agree, then let's do it this way!” Wu Zhengmin looked at Wu Zhiyong and said, ”Zhiyong, you have to remember this lesson deeply. No matter what, you can always be smart for a moment, but if you want to have a prosperous life, you have to learn how to be upright...”
Wu Zhiqiang immediately understood the meaning behind his father's words, and his heart froze. Obviously, Wu Zhengmin had seen through Wu Zhiyong's little intelligence, so his words were a double entendre. On the one hand, he taught Wu Zhizhong a little trick in dealing with Ji Feng, and on the other hand, he was also teaching him not to be so smart in front of his own family.
